Christians Swinging Democratic Too

Well, I just keep finding more and more evidence that the Democratic Party is the Party of ALL Americans. Honestly, I'm not even looking for this info, I just keep coming across it.

Among religious Christians, there really is a bias towards Republicans, unlike the myths about Jewish voters, young voters and Asian-American voters. But the Republican bias is decreasing. From Street Prophets:

Dramatic shift of evangelical and Catholic votes

Catholic Shift - 16 point swing to Dems nationally since 2004

White Evangelical Shift - 16 point swing to Dems nationally since 2004.

10-point Dem gain among weekly chuchgoers up to near parity D46/R53

The Republicans are losing touch with their base. I am sure they are scratching their heads about why this is happening. Well, I can tell them: it's because the modern Republican Party has become a bunch of corrupt, right wing extremists with no real philosophical connection with real American values. No one likes Bush anymore.
